If we are going to hae consequences then we need to be very clear up front what the commitment is that somebody is signing up to. If we say that the commitment associated with a -1 is: * At least one release per year * JIRA which includes a patch with integration tests remains open for more than two releases Then that is fine... somebody saying -1 knows up front what they are committing to... but we cannot set the bar after the -1 vote. Similarly I think the committment should be the committment that we as Apache Maven Committers are giving in terms of an SLA for the Apache Maven hosted plugins... so that frames the vote for removal being we cannot meet the commitment of our SLA with the community -Stephen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
